Situated 450km from Adelaide and 430km from Melbourne, MountGambier is the perfect pit-stop between the two capital cities.
Sitting on a spectacular volcanic landscape surrounded by vast areas of pine trees, Mount Gambier is a charming small town that has plenty to uncover.
The top thing to see in Mount Gambier is the majestic Blue Lake. Sitting in one of the extinct volcanic craters of Mount Gambier, the Blue lake changes colour with the seasons – in summer it turns a deep blue colour, but come spring it turns into a mesmorising grey.
Be sure to climb to the top of the Centenary Tower for panoramic views of Mount Gambier and the surrounding area. Pack a picnic and enjoy the afternoon in the glorious sunshine. Or stick around the for the spectacular sunset.
